You will also gain a brief insight into EFL teaching methodology and practice. We will provide you with an overview of the key course elements and advise on post course options, at home and abroad.

Our free tasters are standalone, non-accredited sessions that will allow you to find out what studying these subjects at a Higher Level would entail and where gaining these qualifications could take you.
